Emperor Yunwu’s expression stiffened; despite being prepared for this, a flash of disappointment crossed his face.
Xu Xi curled her lips and chuckled. Latos realized what was happening, but it was already too late—Lu Li’s attack was already prepared.
It was a rare, beautiful day, and Adams wandered leisurely between the training grounds, intending to check on the first team’s practice and greet Wenger.
"Is it taking that long to change clothes?" Mo Qiang muttered to himself, admiring his creation: a jade bracelet, deep purple in color, with fluorescent light shimmering within as if trapped in dark clouds. Upon closer inspection, the glowing mist was actually streaks of lightning. This was the gift Mo Qiang was offering—a glass-like jade bracelet.
Only then did Zhang Liang break into a smile. He helped Zhuge Liang to his feet and revealed the key points of using the reversal of true essence to destroy the formation’s nodes, immediately after which Zhang Liang erased the memory from his own mind.
This punch descended from the heavens, striking the center and radiating a crater outward; in an instant, all threats were cleared.
Compared to the slaughter that had completely filled the forest before, it was now clearly much calmer.
Hai Chenyang ignored Mo Qiang but ceased speaking, radiating spiritual energy from his body. Although he didn’t form any hand seals, the scene resembled the "Hundred Stars Soul-Drawing" technique. Mo Qiang watched in astonishment as dazzling light erupted from Hai Chenyang, shooting off like arrows of light toward the distant stars—what else could it be but the Hundred Stars Soul-Drawing?
An even more unexpected scene unfolded: the angel sprouted an additional arm from beneath its right arm.
Aguero cursed loudly, waving his arms in fury at Sane, while the rest of the Manchester City players clutched their heads and sighed incessantly.
Although they were unwilling to open fire on Jiang Liushi, the soldiers could not defy orders and stand by while Jiang Liushi attacked Han Yuan.
Of course, the Crown Prince never forgot to check on Nie Fenghua when visiting the Nie residence—though always under the guise of delivering gifts—after all, it was Nie Fenghua who had successfully treated his mother, Empress Dowager Dou.
"You have to do it like this; don’t keep your finger on the trigger when drawing the weapon. The demonstration Wang Ergou gave you was wrong—that’s not safe." Li Ruohan was at the shooting range, teaching Huo Yuanjia how to shoot by holding his hands.

"The night is so beautiful, the bright moon hangs in the sky, and the stars are aligned. I imagine next year will be another year of favorable weather for crops," Han Feixue said.
"She left Wudang Mountain an hour ago, but we have no idea where she went," a Wudang disciple reported.
"There will not be a next time. I promise, there will absolutely not be a next time," Song Anle stated firmly.
Placed in this world, the fact that Lu Yu could fight the old man to this extent was truly… quite an exaggerated feat.
Tong Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief and asked me what was going on. I told her about Xin Xuan’s plan and what I had to do, though I couldn't mention the true objective. Even Xin Xuan and Yang Hongkai were kept in the dark about Matsushima Naoka’s situation.
Yan Mi didn't lower himself to the level of others; he stood guard outside the delivery room, either pacing back and forth with a grave expression that made people dizzy, or pressing his face against the window to peer inside.
Lin Fei not only spared his life—a supreme act of mercy—but even stepped in to save him. It was simply unbelievable.
After the first lunar month, the Sun residence grew quiet. Three months passed in the blink of an eye; Yingchun grew lazier by the day, wanting only to sleep, and her appetite grew steadily better. Sun Shaozu returned later and later, and Yingchun knew he was busy with the plot of Prince Fuqing to rebel.
Of course, regardless of which stage—one, two, or three—it all referred to events happening on a digital planet. Countless digital planets were like countless servers, born and destroyed endlessly alongside the players' game progression.
After Ling Lin’s breakthrough, his ability to control gravity had strengthened significantly; when applied to a second-tier ability user, it was absolutely overwhelming.
"Grandma, don’t worry. A lot of things happened, I’ll tell you all about it." Meng Qi recounted everything exactly as it occurred, seeing the look of relief finally settle on her grandmother’s face.
The reason Lin Fei sent Liu Jingchen to the third floor of the Devil’s Tower was simple: he needed to discuss the rescue of Qin Zimo, Yuan Yuxi, and the others with the elders, and these things naturally could not be heard by Liu Jingchen.
Ning Jiang’s body was filled with countless mysteries. If they could unravel these mysteries and obtain all of Ning Jiang’s secrets, it would be a heaven-sent fortune for them.

The guard leader’s words confirmed Liang Jingxian’s competence, but also left Cen Wuniang feeling increasingly desperate and regretful—if she hadn’t veered off-course to avoid Gu Zheng, it wouldn't have been her path blocked by the large tree, but rather Gu Zheng’s party. Following behind them, they would have had enough time to turn back and seek refuge.
Once, her pure demon self happened upon a not-so-pure scene—Susu covered her face.
Lusha took a deep breath and said, "Take to the air?" She didn’t intend to battle dozens of giant warriors. Even if she could break out of the encirclement, it would come at a heavy cost.
After felling the young acolyte, the pain began to creep in bit by bit, and blood started to trickle down from the wound.
The fearless Alliance knight thrust his blade into the throat of the enemy before him, immediately unleashing his battle aura to shatter the opponent’s life force. But before he could even pull his weapon out, someone else lunged at him from the side.
However, when she turned her head to look at Sun Lei, who was in a semi-conscious state in the back seat, she was filled with worry. She did have ways to extract information, but it was by no means simple and would surely require a great deal of effort.
"Jinglong, give Tagore a call and tell him I’ll be paying him a visit shortly," Jiang Cheng said to Jinglong with a smile.
But this time, Zhao Duan was smarter and didn't speak. For one thing, Jiang Cheng had already warned him to keep quiet; if he spoke up now, wouldn't he just be shooting himself in the foot?
This scene happened to be witnessed by Jin Lin, who was passing by. His tense nerves gave a slight tremor, and an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart. When the rabbit is dead, the hound is boiled—how could Jin Lin not understand such a simple truth?
